    Dear Dom Sigalas, I would like to leave a UA-cam comment to praise your work as a sound designer. I have learned more from you in a few days than in over 20 years of using recording software, starting with Cool Edit and then Cubase. I sincerely want to thank you from the bottom of my heart and let you know that I will continue to follow you and eagerly learn from you as long as I live!
    Since the first time I stumbled upon your videos, I have felt that you are a true expert in the field of sound design. Your clear and detailed explanations have allowed me to deepen my knowledge and improve my skills in recording and music production. Not only do you have vast technical knowledge, but you also possess a great ability to convey information in a clear and understandable manner, even for someone like me who doesn't have a professional background in the field.
    Thanks to your tutorials, I have learned numerous tricks and techniques that have helped me achieve incredible results in my recordings. I have learned how to make the most of the features of my recording software and how to use effects to manipulate and enhance sound. Additionally, you have generously shared your "secret sauces" to add a unique touch to tracks and create that beloved 80s atmosphere.
    I also want to thank you for your commitment to sharing your knowledge and your dedication to responding to your fans' questions. I truly appreciate that you are willing to give your time and expertise to help others improve their skills in sound design.
    I will continue to be a loyal viewer of your videos and learn from you. You are a true source of inspiration, and I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us in the future. Thank you again for everything you do and for helping me pursue my dream of becoming a better music producer.
    Warm thanks and a big hug,
    Thomas Grotto,

    Nice! As you showed, level-matching is a great way to make sure one's on the right track when doing serial compression and saturation. :D It's easy to be tricked into thinking something is better just because it's louder.

    WOW! A true masterclass! I'm a complete noob, fearful of how to process vocals for a professional sound. Seriously, I teared up at the end from sheer delight of haven been given access to the knowledge and skill of an audio mixing/mastering master. Fascinating how each processing step adds its own nuance(s). Thanks so much, Dom. And, thank you as well to all the commenters sharing their take and experience. I suggest watching this multiple times to ensure it soaks in. Also, compare and contrast with other techniques, and BE SURE to watch Dom's "Gain State Like a Pro" video.

    Super helpful, Dom. The stages give me so much more structure. Thank you! The only thing I’m doing different ist to set the parallel compression as a pre and set the routing of both the vocals and the parallel compression FX channel to a new bus. On this bus I’m automating the volume so the compression is stable. Also I’m sending reverbs from this bus. Beside that this is my new standard chain for vocals!

    @realraven2000 2 роки тому +1

    i have used most of these on my vocals but the combination is great. I usually start with the CLA2A the tip with multiband taming before is great. the abbey Road saturator is also one of my favourites never disappoints on vox. the parallel cla76 and kramer on the 2 sends was new really nice for chorus vs verse. i usually only throw extra takes on it - you do it all from the one track! tx Dom for sharing

    Btw, it would be interesting to see how you treat layers of transient rich, percussive elements. Say, if you have alot of tight midi drums and percussion with overlaying transients that build up.
